Lately I have been watching thenewboston's django videos which got abandoned apparently (2 years ago)

Is there anywhere a great continuation of this ? (follow up on REST API)

This guy explained it great, haven't found anything useful to learn from.


Suggest me !
 
You can try udemy, I don't want to push anything specific, but the point is that the popular courses there are being updated on a regular basis.

Found some guides but are currently outdated according to the reviews.
 
then also consider playing with JMeter to test out your API's. Quite powerful beyond what it was made for, so it may give you some ideas too for projects.
 
Node.js with mongodb works well and is good to learn
 
REST is really just a design pattern for creating APIs. Whether it's RESTful or not doesn't make much difference to how you consume it. Maybe worth reading up on generic concepts, like different methods of request authentication and signing.
 
Go on with Python Flask. You can quickly go up and running. There's a lot youtube videos and good documented:)
 
agree with Unchangeable, you need more Flask than Django, its more specific than general purpose framework,
most easier would be just repeat or follow any youtube video tutorial
 
Recently made an API myself.

Used this tutorial

Everything works correctly. Great base to build your ai from

A good point. It's pretty much a conceptual thing, a way of thinking.

But as others have mentioned, Udemy would be a pretty good way to resource to look into.
 
You can also get familiar with api generator - swagger.io, It's good to know how stuff works, but later you'd like to have something structured with docs etc
 
You can find here free udemy courses to learn www (dot) discudemy (dot) com hope you find one on Rest API. Have a good day:D
